This month's challenge is to....
Make a card featuring some sparkliness!
I'm thinking crystals, glitter, beads, metallic bits... Lots to choose from and I dare say something that could be featured on a fair few Christmas cards!! ;)
If at the end of the month there have been 10 or more cards posted here in this thread, then one lucky person will be chosen as a 'winner' and will receive a little goodie through the post courtesy of Leo (CraftyPrincess).

Flop you're very welcome to join in :D
I'm sorry I've not sorted out a prize yet for this month to take a piccy of but I have got some brand new yummy blingy December Crafty goodies kits brewing I'm thinking could work perfectly with the sparkley theme of this months challenge as they're full of yummy blingy sparkley bits ;) I'll try my bestest to get a sneek photo done for the weekend to put up.

Oooh that is lovely Fi! I can't believe I am still to add sparkliness to the Christmas cards I've made so far, real poor form eh? ^_^

It doesn't say so Tina. The challenge is just glittery with bling I think.

No bling... Nat are you feeling ok??
The card I did, I've done loads for birthdays, babies etc, just a simple line of gems (all the shapes) and a message, really useful simple card:wub:

Ok so I've never entered a challenge before so here goes. I've had this kit from a shopping channel lying around for over a year and never used it so .... now I have. The pics a bit blurry, not sure why. USed sparkle gems, message and ribbon too. Oh and if you can't see on the pic, I cut an aperture with nesties and stuck the bits and bobs inside the card. It started off as a piece of double sided A4 card.

Ooo, lovely blingy cards ladies. It was going to be my first posting of a card as I've done 6 since yesterday, checked November's Challenge and it's everything sparkly but the cards I've done (since over a year I've not been crafting), are not blingy. The card that was blingy was given to DH over half an hour to give to niece for her birthday today as DD is on her way to ballet then to party. Ah well roll on next challenge, hope everyone gets posting, B.

purplefairy, if it's in your gallery here, underneath the picture there is a box with some web stuff, one is called linked thumbnail, another linked medium (I think), click on your mouse in the box next to the size you want to select it all, copy and paste the whole lot into your post, you have to make sure it is all there. That is by far the easiest way to link stuff from your gallery:wub:
